The facility was a fantastic value. The attention to the needs of guests in advance was truly remarkable. The layout was well-planned, such that rarely was there a wait for restroom facilities. The staff was friendly and attentive and readily available for check-in. The grounds are well maintained and very clean considering the number of guests. I extended my stay several times and found each of the different suites comfortable and cozy. A great place to end each day of a Hawaiian island adventure.

The property is set 25 km from Pana'ewa Rainforest Zoo, 29 km from University of Hawaii, Hilo and 31 km from The Pacific Tsunami Museum. Lyman Museum & Mission House is 31 km away and Rainbow Falls is 34 km from the hostel. I loved the price! Accomodation on big island is really expensive 🙈 however, even it was cheap this room was spacious, clean, and all we needed to rest. It's located next to some bar, so we heard music coming out from the street, but once we closed the windows it wasn't an issue at all. The neighbourhood is not the safast one, however, on the property have had 3 locks on the way getting into the room that made us feel secure. .
